NEW SYSTEM FEATURES
REARVIEW MONITOR (if so equipped)
When the shift lever is shifted into the
R (REVERSE) position, the monitor display
shows a rearward view from the vehicle.

The colored guide lines on the display screen
indicate vehicle width and approximate distances
to objects with reference to the vehicle body line:
• Red 1.5 ft (0.5 m); Yellow 3 ft (1 m); Green 7 ft (2 m) and 10 ft (3 m).
For more information, refer to the “Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems (section 4) ” of
your Owner’s Manual.
NAVTRAFFIC* AND NAVWEATHER* (if so equipped)
Your vehicle’s Navigation System is equipped with

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
A CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning message
will appear in the vehicle information display
1 and the low tire pressure warning light 2
will illuminate when one or more tires are low in
pressure and air is needed.
• The tire pressures should be checked when the
tires are cold. The tires are considered cold after
the vehicle has been parked for 3 hours or more or
driven less than 1 mi (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.

After tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above
16 mph (25 km/h). The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning message and the low
tire pressure warning light will extinguish.

Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle\
’s operation
and the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the tempe\
rature of
the air inside the tire, which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This may cause
the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate. If the warning light \
illuminates, check
the tire pressure in your tires.
• Check the tire pressure (including the spare tire) often and always prior \
to long
distance trips.

When the low tire pressure warning light flashes for 1 minute and then \
remains on,
the TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.

The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Please refer to
the “Technical and consumer information (section 9)” of your Owner’s Manual for the
location of the Tire and Loading Information label.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)”, the “Starting and driving (section 5)”
and the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself (section 8)” of your Owner’s Manual.
